The Manor ISD Board of Trustees and community all voted for the innovative Fall Break to be a part of the calendar for the next two years.

Following a week of polling, 61.71 percent of respondents chose Option 2, which had the fall break calendar going into the 2018-19 and 2019-20 school years. Option 1 had an identical calendar for the 2018-19 school year, while the third options didn't have a fall break and matched what Manor ISD had done previously.

Following the voting, the Manor ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to approve the calendar option chosen by the community. The calendars for 2018-19 and 2019-20 are attached, and the calendar highlights can be seen below.
